The man in the driving seat was murdered a week earlier. On Hampstead Heath, a bonfire blazes: in the flames lies the next victim. As autumn leaves fall, a serial killer runs amok in the capital, playing games with the police. The death toll is rising fast, and the investigation is floundering. But this is no ordinary killer, and every new victim is intended as a message to just one woman. Because psychologist Frieda Klein is in hiding. And someone is coming to find her . After seven stunning novels, Frieda Klein's duel with her dark nemesis finally comes to a climax - and only one can make it out alive. Nicci French is the pseudonym for the writing partnership of journalists Nicci Gerrard and Sean French. The couple are married and live in Suffolk. There are fourteen other bestselling novels by Nicci French, all published by Penguin. Blue Monday July 2018 was the first thrilling story in the Frieda Klein series, followed 9780718179687 by Tuesday's Gone, Waiting for Wednesday, Thursday's Child, Royal Octavo Friday on My Mind, Saturday Requiem and Sunday Morning £16.99 : Hardback Coming Down. 320 pages Twitter @FrenchNicci www.niccifrench.co.uk http://www.facebook.com/NicciFrenchOfficialPage 3 The Lost Letters of William Woolf Helen Cullen A love letter to second chances, the resilience of the human heart and the power of the written word Lost letters have only one hope for survival . Inside the Dead Letters depot in East London, William Woolf is one of thirty letter detectives who spend their days solving mysteries: missing postcodes, illegible handwriting, rain- smudged ink, lost address labels, torn packages, forgotten street names - they are all the culprits of missed birthdays, broken hearts, unheard confessions, pointless accusations, unpaid bills and unanswered prayers. But when William discovers letters addressed simply to 'My Great Love', his work takes on new meaning. Written by a wistful woman to the soulmate she hasn't met yet, the missives capture William's heart in ways he didn't know were possible, and soon he begins to wonder: Are these letters truly lost? Or might he be the intended recipient - could he be her great love? Helen Cullen is an Irish writer living in London. The Lost Letters of William Woolf is her debut novel. July 2018 9780718189143 Demy Octavo £12.99 : Hardback 464 pages 4 The Break Line James Brabazon A compelling and suspense-filled debut novel from internationally bestselling author James Brabazon Officially, Max McLean doesn't exist. The British government denies all knowledge of the work he does on their behalf to keep us safe. But Max and his masters are losing faith in each other. And they give him one last chance to prove he's still their man. Sent to a military research facility to meet a former comrade-in- arms, Max finds the bravest man he ever knew locked up for his own protection. His friend lost his mind during an operation in West Africa. The reason? Absolute mortal terror. Max is determined to find out why. Ahead lies a perilous, breathtaking mission into the unknown that will call into question everything that Max once believed in. Acting alone, without back-up, Max lands in Sierra Leone with his friend's last words ringing in his ears: 'They're coming, Max. They're coming . .' The Break Line is a debut dripping with authenticity and menace. Smart, unputdownable and packed with irresistible set pieces and jaw-dropping plot twists, this is a thriller like no other. 'Beautifully written and extensively researched, The Break July 2018 Line is a riveting page-turner, a gruesome delight, and a 9780718186234 study of what lies in the shadowed corners of the human Royal Octavo heart' GREGG HURWITZ, author of ORPHAN X £12.99 : Hardback 384 pages 'A taught, razor-edged thriller, packed with granular detail and authenticity' JAMES SWALLOW, author of NOMAD James Brabazon is an award-winning frontline journalist and documentary filmmaker.
